In brief

In this set of activities, students will explore the characteristics of the surface of planet Mars and will learn how to navigate a planetary robotic vehicle on to it.

The resource focuses on coding and uses Open Roberta Lab, an online simulation tool. The tool supports simulation of many popular educational robotic platforms like LEGO Education EV3 and WeDo 2.0, BBC micro:bit, Calliope mini, mbot and others. Students will become familiar with the main characteristics of the Martian surface and then they will be guided to program the solution to different challenges of advancing difficulty.
